Abstract

This chapter will discuss student-driven learning within a Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL) environment. It will first put forward some technological learning tools that have encouraged student-centered learning (SCL) and later explore online collaborative learning which is seen as a pathway towards enhancing SCL in the 21st century classrooms. This is important as effective SCL instruction not only provides learners with skills and knowledge but also enable them to function capably and contribute effectively in a highly networked society in the future. This chapter highlights that today's technology enhanced learning environment has brought about various innovations in teaching and learning. Technology is moving at such a fast rate that information is at everyone's fingertips and learning goes far beyond the four walls of the classrooms. In such an age, students move into new flexible learning spaces and environments that can allow them to take ownership of their own learning.
